阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　Growing up I wasted a lot of time being afraid and embarrassed (尴尬的) over the smallest things and thinking I was near death from my many allergies and troubles. My attitude changed however when I was a teenager.

　　I had gone to a wonderful birthday party and the girl's parents served hamburgers with mustard (芥末). I ate one even though I'm very allergic to mustard. I soon felt an attack coming on but tried to hide it. When the party was over I made it to my parents' car but then it happened I got sick out of the car window and was caught in the light of all the other car-lights. I wanted to die. After that nothing seemed quite so embarrassing again. I'd learned an important lesson: You can't really die of embarrassment. It just feels fatal (致命的).

　　I have failed with dozens of shows including “Me and the Chimp” and “Blansky's Beauties”. The important thing was that each time I got up the next day and tried to think of another show.

　　Most people try to beat down their flaws (缺陷) or deny (否认) them altogether. I've always found it best to say “Here are my flaws. Now I have to find something I'm good at. ” Don't use your flaws as an excuse to give up. If fear doesn't beat you off and if you can work under pressure then you've got a shot at success.
